Dr. Nellmarie Bodenstein answered
Specializes in
Taste buds: The taste buds that are enlarged is mostly due to silent reflux " heartburn", this causes swelling of tongue at back of throat. Can treat this with Lancap for two weeks thirty minutes before meals to see if this helps. Treat the canker sore with Septogard natural antibiotic and pharylex spray for pain and treatment.
